Re: Ivory towers by 0tim0 at Wed 31 Aug 9:15amscore of 1 compelling in reply to comment 3 The economy sucks... Well, unemployment is 5%. When I took economics in college, that was the "magic number" for unemployment. If it went lower, there is a risk theater of inflation. Our GDP growth is around 3.3%. That is a good strong number that isn't too hot. I think our population growth is like 1%. And if you look at the report, poverty rose to 12.7% from 12.5%.

Not great, certainly not bad.
